Event:

(523) Brooklyn Nets at (524) Boston Celtics

Date/Time:

Mar 18, 2025 7:40 PM EDT

Play:

Brooklyn Nets +13.5 (-110)

The Boston Celtics host the Brooklyn Nets in a quick rematch Tuesday night after narrowly escaping with a 115-113 win on Saturday. While the Celtics remain one of the top teams in the league and a powerhouse at home, they’ve struggled to consistently cover large spreads in these spots. Boston is just 15-20 ATS at home this season and only 5-9 ATS when playing with a rest advantage, including 2-8 ATS if they are double digit favorites. Even with a strong straight-up record, these numbers indicate a recurring pattern of inflated lines not translating to betting value. With Jaylen Brown already ruled out and Jayson Tatum questionable, the Celtics may again lean on their depth, which could leave the backdoor wide open for Brooklyn.

The Nets, despite a rough overall stretch, have shown fight lately and are coming off a confidence-boosting 122-114 win over Atlanta as 5.5-point underdogs. While a letdown is possible, Brooklyn has been surprisingly reliable as a road dog this season, sitting at 18-12-1 ATS in that role. In fact, they’ve now covered four straight against teams with winning records, and they’ve already proven they can compete with Boston, pushing them to the wire just days ago. Even without Cam Thomas, Brooklyn's recent balance in scoring and improved second-half execution makes them a dangerous underdog.

Historically, this matchup trends toward tighter outcomes than expected, especially at TD Garden. The Nets have covered in four straight against winning teams, and their ability to stay close late—just as they did on Saturday—shouldn’t be overlooked. With a hefty +13.5 number on the board, and with Boston possibly managing minutes or missing key pieces, this is a strong spot to grab the points with Brooklyn. The Celtics may still win, but the value lies in the Nets keeping this within the number.

NBA Betting Picks Today, NBA Predictions Tonight 

One of the most refreshing aspects of NBA picks free from WagerTalk is the frequency with which they're offered.  These are not AI picks that are just churned out nonsensically a week in advance.  These NBA picks free that are made available for today and for tonight's NBA games reflect the most recent news, injury reports, trades, matchup evaluations and much more.  They're fresh, they're frequent, and they're spectacular. 
 

Free Against the Spread NBA Picks

ATS NBA bets are some of the most popular choices for NBA bettors.  They're also among the most difficult. NBA bettors, however, and NBA experts, can sometimes find a nice edge in ATS NBA betting - maybe a line doesn't totally take into account some statistics or maybe bettors have shifted the line incorrectly.

Maybe two teams match up in such a way that the spread is moot. Only you can find out by getting your picks free for NBA bets from us

Free NBA MoneyLine Predictions

NBA moneyline betting picks are free and common from WagerTalk.  You'll see them every day from WagerTalk's team. NBA moneyline betting could not be simpler. And makes your watching of the games pretty straightforward - you simply pick the NBA team that you think is going to win. A heavy favorite won't see a generous payout, but an underdog will.

Total Points, Over/Under Free NBA Predictions 

Grab WagerTalk's free NBA over under picks daily. An over under pick simply refers to whether or a team or combined total of teams points will end up being more (over) or less (under) than the designated line for that game.

If an over/under line for an NBA game is 201.5, and you place a bet on the over, you need the teams to combine for 202+ points. It's that simple. Over/under betting can also comes in halves and sometimes even quarters - and you can get longer odds if you select a less likely over/under line offered by a sportsbook.

If two high-scoring NBA teams match up, you could very well see some pretty extravagantly high overs - but that doesn't mean it's not worth taking a look - but check with our NBA expert handicappers first for their suggested free NBA picks!

Props & Parlay NBA Betting Picks - Free NBA Picks & Parlays

WagerTalk gives you free NBA player props and team props throughout the year.  The undisputed online leader in NFL and MLB player props, WagerTalk's expert prop bettors apply that knowledge to NBA props as well. 

Is there a tasty NBA player prop out there that you haven't noticed?  Maybe a not particularly good at rebounding guard is playing against a team that bombs away from long-range and bricks hard.  Maybe that player's over/under rebounds line is something like 3.  Well, in this matchup, he's got a good shot at knocking well past that 3 rebounds, making him a great NBA player prop pick - WagerTalk can find that prop.
